reader,<br>
<br>
We are glad to present you the third newsletter of the GOETE
research <br>
project. GOETE aims at analysing how educational trajectories
of young <br>
people are regulated as a result of complex interactions in
different <br>
European education systems. The study “Governance of
educational <br>
trajectories in Europe” (GOETE) investigates how access of
children and <br>
young people to different stages of education is enabled or
restricted, <br>
how coping with educational demands is being facilitated
through formal <br>
and informal support and how it is being negotiated between
different <br>
actors what kind of education actually is relevant for society
at large <br>
as well as subjectively for the learners. <br>
<br>
This GOETE newsletter brings an update on the progress in our
research, <br>
and articulates some reflections on European and national
policy <br>
discussions.<br>
<br>
With best regards from the <br>
<br>
GOETE coordination team <br>
<br>

face="Tahoma">The GOETE Consortium Meeting was held in Turku,
Finland, from June 29th <br>
to July 02nd 2010. Prof. Dr. Risto Rinne, head of the Finnish
team, <br>
welcomed as many as 40 representatives from all partner teams
who <br>
attended the meeting to discuss research related issues such
as <br>
comparative analysis and dissemination strategies of the GOETE
project. <br>
Turku was a particularly convenient place to meet, since the
city hosts <br>
the European Capital of Culture 2011. <br>

Education</font></small><br>
<small><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Tahoma">_______________________________________________________________________
<br>
<br>
Finnish education policy, educational legislation and the
entire <br>
education system have changed significantly during the last
two decades <br>
as part of a general restructuring of public administration
due to <br>
economic, regional and demographic constraints. Risto Rinne
& Jenni <br>
Tikkanen provide a timely overview of recent trends. <br>

Training in the Netherlands<br>
</font></small><small><font class="Apple-style-span"
face="Tahoma">_______________________________________________________________________
<br>
<br>
Education policies in the Netherlands are very much in the
focus of <br>
politics, the scientific community and the general public
alike. Manuela <br>
du Bois-Reymond confronts findings from interviews with
teacher trainers <br>
with an analysis of recent developments in teacher training
and how they <br>
relate to contemporary issues in the debate. <br>

Teacher education traditionally falls under the
responsibility of <br>
national or regional educational governance and
legislation. There are <br>
no centralized political requirements, guidelines, or
competences on a <br>
law giving sense at the European or global level.
Nonetheless, Colin <br>
Cramer and Marcelo Parreira do Amaral argue that
currently one can <br>
observe international trends in reforming teacher
education globally and <br>
within Europe across the different national teacher
education systems. <br>

<br>
In April, GOETE started a new sub-study that aims at
analysing <br>
Educational governance with a view to understanding
governing <br>
discourses, policies and practices and how they shape
and regulate <br>
educational trajectories, especially at each transition
point. This <br>
sub-study seeks to answer questions such as: What
decisions are made and <br>
practices initiated by whom, at what levels, with what
consequences? <br>
What are the roles of actors at national level
(government, national <br>
school administration, professional organisations,
employers’ <br>
associations, policy consultants) in relation to local
actors (schools, <br>
local economy, policy makers, administrators, social and
youth <br>
services)?<br>
